Orchis mascula

Early purple orchid. The grass verges & heath are dotted with these exotic looking beauties.
I spent an hour on the plot before heading to CK to walk Indie. Early this morning as it was haircut day.
I heard a linnet on the heath this morning, woody woodpecker tapping away in the distance, & the very vocal Blackcap. The simple things in life give me the most pleasure.
Our TV packed up yesterday, today I went to buy a new one, then had to set it up.... No pressure! Oh how I dislike technology.
